Note.

HE present arrangement of cc The
Beggar's Opera,'' made for Mr. Nigel
Playfair's revival at the Lyric Theatre,
Hammersmith, has been prepared from
two early editions kindly lent to me
by Mr. J. G. Craururd and Mr. Barry
Jackson. For these editions, Dr.
Pepusch and Dr. Arne were respectively
responsible. The material contained in them consists of an
Overture and the tunes of the songs, to which figured basses
were added. These tunes differ very much in detail in the two
editions, but in general 1 have used the more authentic and
simpler versions of Dr. Pepusch, in preference to those made
later by Dr. Arne. The Overture also bears traces of the
variation in taste and style characteristic of the two editors,
and is claimed by both of them (or their publishers) as their
own composition. There is little doubt, however, that it was
originally written by Dr. Pepusch, and, apart from re-scoring
it, I have here left it very much as it stood in his edition,
slightly revising and stiffening the texture of the counterpoint.
The figured basses were not such as could be used for present
purposes, and I have re-harmonibcd the Airs, provided accom-
paniments, introductions, etc., for them, arranging certain of
them as concerted pieces, and adding music to them in various
ways where reasons of stage action have made it necessary.
Additions will also be found here and there in the shape of
Interludes, etc. I have scored the whole for String Quintet,
Flute, Oboe and Harpsichord, with occasional use of the Viola
d'Amore and Viola da Gamba.

The parts of Macheath and Lucy Lockit were originally
planned for a tenor and a soprano. These I have re-arranged
for a bass-baritone and a contralto, partly because of the particular
circumstances of Mr. Playfair's production, partly for reasons
of contrast with other voices in the opera.

ACT I.

Overture -

Thro' all the employments of life
'Tis woman that seduces all mankind
If any wench Venus' girdle wear
If love the virgin's heart invade
A maid is like the golden ore
Virgins are like the fair flower
Our Polly is a sad slut (Duet)
Can love be controlled by advice ?

0 Polly, you might have toyed and kissed (Duet)

1 like a ship in storms was tossed
A fox may steal your hens, sir

O ponder well -

Pretty Polly, say (Duet)

My heart was so free

Were I laid on Greenland's coast (Duet)

O what pain it is to part (Duet)

ACT II.

Fill every glass (Solo and Chorus)

Fill every glass (Solo and Chorus) (Second version)

Let us take the Road (Solo and Chorus) -

If the heart of a man

Youth's the season (Chorus and Dance)

Before the barn-door crowing (Solo and Chorus)

At the tree I shall suffer

Interlude -

Introduction (Newgate Prison)

Man may escape from rope and gun

How cruel are the traitors

The first time at the looking-glass

When you censure the age (Duet)

Is then his fate decreed ?

You'll think ere many days ensue

Thus when the swallow

How happy could I be with either

I'm bubbled, I'm troubled (Duet)

Cease your funning -

Why, how now, Madam Flirt ? (Duet)

No power on earth (Ensemble)

Melodrama - - - -

ACT III.

Introduction -

In the days of my youth (Trio)

The charge is prepared

Hornpipe (Dance of prisoners in chains) -

Macheath's soliloquy -

Would I might be hang'd (Trio)

Thus I stand like the Turk (Solo and Chorus)
